This is going to be a tough play. Instincts say ~$80m but it had a LOT of premium previews... lots of book fans rushed out to see it.
Although I do think the PG13 rating might help it get some parents/kids this weekend. Gen-Alpha's Star Wars?
Jatinder: Looks like $8M+ previews for #ProjectHailMary. With early shows, it will be around $11.5M. Mar 19, 23:15

Based on RT / word of mouth, it'll get quite a few walk ups {nm} Mar 20, 07:05
Is that really a thing anymore? I haven't "walked up" to get tickets for a movie in a decade or more. Mar 20, 07:09
Yes, or people deciding an hour before to go to see a film. Not everybody is buying tickets days in advance. {nm} Mar 20, 07:19
Dune Part 2 was $12m with a million from an IMAX fan event... so PRJHM has slightly more from previews. $82.5m opening {nm} Mar 20, 07:25
Very similar running times too. PRJHM is only ~10 mins shorter. (2hrs 45min vs. 2hrs 36min) {nm} Mar 20, 07:31
played well at the 10p Chinese show, crowed seemed pretty comic-nerdy. the wall-to-wall jokey tone was too offputting for me Mar 20, 12:48
